[edit] Tag re: missing citations throughout
This article needed and still needs some work re: WP:ATTRIBUTION. It did and still in some cases does not attribute its statements and quotations from sources adequately or accurately. There was some plagiarism from some sources due to incorrectly attributed quotations or statements with missing quotation marks. See editorial interpolations in the main article itself. I've done some cleanup but have no time to do any more to it. The people who inserted the material from sources in the article initially need to document their use of sources. In some cases, I've consulted and documented statements or quotations with particular editions that I've given. They may have used other editions. It is important to cite the same editions consistently throughout an article, or if changing editions to indicate clearly what edition one is citing and, if necessary, why that one instead of another. --NYScholar 01:51, 10 August 2007 (UTC)
[edit] Changes
Changes by editors have introduced faulty presentation of what should be quotations from Billington throughout. All need correct punctuation. The note citations need to be to the same (most recent--2007) ed. of Billington's book. Please fix. No plagiarism from sources please: quotation marks indicating exact quotations are necessary. Some of the alterations change sense of original statements in Billington. --—Preceding unsigned comment added by NYScholar (talk • contribs) 17:51, 30 August 2007 (UTC) [re-added signature; looks as though I forgot one tilde earlier. --NYScholar (talk) 19:58, 12 May 2008 (UTC)]
[edit] Fair use rationale for Image:The Birthday Party.jpg
Image:The Birthday Party.jpg is being used on this article. I notice the image page specifies that the image is being used under fair use but there is no explanation or rationale as to why its use in this Wikipedia article constitutes fair use. In addition to the boilerplate fair use template, you must also write out on the image description page a specific explanation or rationale for why using this image in each article is consistent with fair use.
Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale. Using one of the templates at Wikipedia:Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to insure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy, but remember that you must complete the template. Do not simply insert a blank template on an image page.
If there is other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on the other images used on this page. Note that any fair use images uploaded after 4 May, 2006, and lacking such an explanation will be deleted one week after they have been uploaded, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you.

[edit] Fried bread
The words "fried bread" are linked to "French toast". Are you sure about that? When I've had French toast in the US it's been what French toast is about: bread soaked in egg and fried. In the UK "fried bread" has mostly been fried in bacon fat or similar. Am I mistaken? The Wednesday Island (talk) 19:42, 12 May 2008 (UTC)
Probably not; the "French toast" article does mention "fried bread", but I've just found a link to a more specific article mentioning both kinds and am to link to that. [updated reply]. --NYScholar (talk) 19:49, 12 May 2008 (UTC)
- Added link to "fried bread" in text of article. --NYScholar (talk) 19:55, 12 May 2008 (UTC)
